Objective To study the effect and mechanism of gastric bypass surgery on type 2 diabetic rats.Methods The models of type 2 diabetic rats were induced by stretozotocin and 20 diabetic rats were randomly divided into 2 groups:diabetes-operation group (DO group,n =10)and diabetes-control group(DC group,n =10).20 normal rats were randomly divided into 2 groups:normal-operation(NO group,n =10) and normalcontrol group(NC group,n =10).Rats in DO and NO group underwent GBP and rats in DC group and NC group underwent sham operation.Fasting blood glucose(FBG) levels of rats in each group were detected before operation and on 72 h,1th week,4th week,8th week after operation.On the 8th week after operation,pancreas tissues were harvested for HE staining and immunofluorescence,histological changes observed.Results The FBG levels of rats were not statistically significant different before operation between DO group and DC group or between NO group and NC group (P ＞ 0.05).After operation,the FBG levels of rats in DO group gradually declined (P ＜ 0.05).FBG levels of rats in DO group were lower after operation than before operation(P ＜0.05) ; After operation FBG levels of rats were higher in DO group than in NO group and NC group at the same time point (P ＜0.05).In DC group,the difference of FBG levels of rats at different time point was not statistically significant(P ＞ 0.05).The difference of FBG had no statistically significance between the different time points of the same group or between the same time point of different groups (P ＞ 0.05).HE staining showed that,in DO group,newborn small islets appeared in pancreas which increased the number of islet.The new islets were smaller,mostly around the pancreatic duct and the structure was similar to that of the normal islets.Immunofluorescence staining also showed that the number of islets increased.Insulin immunofluorescence found more isolated small islets composed of two or three insulin positive cells.Insulin and glucagon double immunofluorescence found insulin and glucagon double positive(INS +/GLU +)cells in some islets.Conclusions GBP has obvious hypoglycemic effects on FBG levels of type 2 diabetic rats,in which the regeneration of pancreas islets may play an important role,while on normal rats GBP has no hypoglycemic effects.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of injection of consciousness promoted drug through carotid artery on persistent vegetate state (PVS).Methods33 PVS cases were divided into the treatment group (n=15) and control group (n=18). All patients were treated with routine therapy, but the treatment group added with injection of consciousness-promoted drug through the carotid artery. The therapeutic effects of two groups were evaluated.ResultsAfter the treatment, the therapeutic effects of patients in two groups were better than that of before treatment (P<0.05), and the treatment group was better than control group(P<0.05).ConclusionInjection of consciousness-promoted drug through the carotid artery is effective to PVS patients.

OBJECTIVETo explore the feasibility and safety on lung resection surgery with the combined method of microinjection acupuncture (MIA) and intravenous anesthesia instead of compound traditional acupuncture and drug anesthesia (ADA).

METHODSNinety cases of lung resection surgery were randomized into a general anesthesia group, a MIA group and a ADA group, 30 cases in each one. In the general anesthesia group, before surgery, the intramuscular injection of atropine 0. 5 mg was used; during surgery, the anesthesia induction was followed with intravenous injection of fentanyl citrate, propofol and rocuronium bromide and the dosage was increased accordingly; after surgery, the analgesia pump was applied. In the MIA group, on the basis of general anesthesia, before anesthesia induction, the acupoint catgut embedding was applied to Jiaji (EX-B 2) of T4 , T6 and T, , Feishui (BL 13), Xinshu (BL 15) and Geshu (BL 17) on the affected side and bilateral Quchi (LI 11) and Zusanli (ST 36); after surgery, the analgesia pump was applied. In the ADA group, on the basis of general anesthesia, before! anesthesia induction, electroacupuncture (EA) was applied to Hegu (LI 4), Neiguan (PC 6) , Houxi (SI 3) and Zhigou (TE 6) for 30 min; during surgery, EA and intravenous medication were combined at the same acupoints as those before surgery; after surgery, moxibustion and the analgesia pump were applied in combination for analgesia. In each group, the biological indices were monitored during surgery at 11 time points named T. (before anesthesia I induction), T1 (intubation in general anesthesia induction), T2 (skin incision), T3 (rib exposure in muscular incision) T. (chest open), T, (lung removal), T6 (drainage tube implantation), T7 (chest closure), T (muscular stitching), T, (skin stitching) and T0 (extubation). The actual dosage of anesthetics during surgery and the, dosage of fentanyl citrate in analgesia pump were quantified after surgery. Results (1) In the MIA group and ADA group, the increased dosage of fentanyl citrate was less than that in the general anesthesia group [(1. 23±0. 28) µg . kg-1 . h-1 vs (2. 4±0. 54µg. kg-1 . h-1, (1. 1±0. 38µg . kg-1 . h-1 vs (2. 4±0. 54µg. kg-1 . h-1 , both P<0. 05]. The increased dosage of propofol and rocuronium bromide was not different during surgery among the groups (all P>0. 05). (2) In the MIA group and ADA group, after surgery, the increased dosage of fentanyl citrate was less than that in the general anesthesia group [(11. 0±1. 04)µg/kg vs (15. 4±1. 52µg/kg, (11. 5±1. 38µg/kg vs (15. 4±1. 52µg/kg, both P<0. 05], reducing by 25% in comparison. (3) The differences in heart rate and blood pressure at 11 time points during surgery were not significant among the three groups (all P>0. 05).

CONCLUSIONn The combined method of MIA and intravenous anesthesia significantly reduces the dosage of intravenous anesthetics during and after lung resection surgery as compared with ADA, presenting the similar analgesic effect as simple intravenous medication and the good safety. The combined method of MIA and intravenous anesthesia is much

Objective: To observe the effect of preoperative effect on peri-operative pain in patients following a thoracotomy. Methods: 120 cases following lung-cancer thoracotomy were randomly allocated into four groups, 30 in each group. Cases in group A and B were treated with acupuncture analgesia 3 d before operation; cases in group A and C were treated with acupuncture analgesia after operation; and cases in group D were treated with general anesthesia. The pain management indexes in four groups were all controlled below 3. After that, analgesia-related β-endorphin and stress-related cortisol were observed before and after operation. In addition, the specific doses of postoperative analgesic-Fentanyl in four groups were compared. Results: The comparison of β-endorphin between group A, C and D showed P<0.05 one day before operation, so did group B, C and D 1 day before operation. The intra-group comparison of cortisol between the day of admission and 1 day after extubation and between 1 day before operation and one day after extubation in group A, B and D showed P<0.05, so did group C between the day of admission and 1 day after extubation. In addition, the contents of Fentanyl in postoperative analgesic pump in four groups showed P<0.05 through one-factor analysis of variance, showing a significant difference. Conclusion: Preemptive analgesia could increase the β-endorphin in patients following a thoracotomy and showed remarkable advantage when compared with the conventional postoperative analgesia. It did not cause significant difference regarding stress index cortisol. Acupuncture has no remarkable advantage when compared with operation and extubation for the major immediate stress. Additionally, postoperative acupuncture could be a substitute for the dose of pain killers and the match can be reduced by 20%.

Objective:To investigate the regulation of acupuncture on γ-interferon (INF-γ) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) of lung cancer-operative cases. Methods: to determine the INF-γ and TNF contents in the blood serum of lung cancer patients by double antibody sandwich immuno-enzymatic method (ELISA); to measure the INF-γ and TNF contents of 30 lung cancer patients in the acupuncture anesthesia group and 30 lung cancer patients in general anesthesia group before the operation and at the 8th days, the 12th day after the operation respectively and make comparison between the two groups. Results:The pre-operation INF-γ contents of the two groups showed no significant difference (P＞0.05); the post-operation INF-γ contents of the two groups showed significant difference at 8th day and 12th day after the operation (P＜0.05); the acupuncture anesthesia group was superior to the general anesthesia group; the self-comparison of the anesthesia group showed significant difference at the 12th day and 8th day after the operation (P＜0.05); the pre-operation TNF contents of the two groups showed no significant difference (P＞0.05) and the post-operation TNF contents of the two groups showed significant difference at the 8th day and 12th day after the operation (P＜0.05). Conclusion:Acupuncture can increase the serum INF-γ and TNF contents of lung cancer patients and therefore regulate the immunity of the patients.

Objective To construct the RNA interference eukaryotic expression vector targeting human centromere protein-I (CENP-I) and to observe its effect on the growth of human embryo kidney 293 cells (HEK 293). Methods The expression vectors of pGenesil-1/CENP-I-siRNA-1. pGenesil-1/CENP-I-siRNA-2 and pGenesil-1/CENP-I-siRNA-3 were constructed by gene recombination and then were transfected into the HEK293 cells by liposome. The expressions of CENP-I at the protein and mRNA levels were detected by Western blotting and fluorescence quality PCR (FQ-PCR). The effective vector and the best transfection time were selected. The growth and the cell cycle of the transfected cells were assessed by MTT assay and flow cytometry. Giemsa was used to stain the transfected cells to calculate the mitotic index. Results Sequence-specific siRNAs targeting CENP-I significantly down-regulated the expression of CENP-I in HEK293 cells. The recombinant plasmid of pGenesil-1/CENP-I-siRNA-3 was the effective vector. After transfecting for 72 h the best inhibited efficiency was achieved. In CENP-I-siRNA transfected cells,the rate of cell growth was decreased markedly. Cells at G 2/M phase and the mitotic index were increased conspicuous compared with the cells transfected with the blank vector or untransfected. Conclusion Down-regulation of CENP-I in HEK293 cells by sequence specific siRNA delays the cell growth and postpones the cell division.

AIM: To investigate the changes of expression of calcium-sensing receptor(CaSR) in the rat cardiac tissue at different age and its relation with anoxia-reperfusion(A/R) injury.METHODS: RT-PCR was used to detect the mRNA expression of CaSR.The A/R injury was remodeled in vitro,and the ultrastructure of cardiac tissue was observed under transmission electron microscope.RESULTS: The expression of CaSR mRNA in the rat cardiac tissue increased gradually after birth,and reached to its maximum in the 1st month.In the 2nd to 3rd month,the expression were almost equal to that at birth and then increased again to a higher level.The expression level of CaSR mRNA increased more significantly than those in control groups after 40 min of anoxia and reperfusion of 1 h and 2 h, and decreased after 3 h and 4 h.Moreover,the longer the reperfusion time lasted,the more serious the changes of ultrastructure were observed.CONCLUSION: Our results demonstrate that the CaSR is expressed in the rat cardiac tissue.The mRNA expression of CaSR changes with age and is involved in the anoxia-reperfusion injury.

Objective:To evaluate the intrauterine transmission of syphilis in Nantong City, Jiangsu Province from 2012 to 2019, after the introduction of a nationwide policy for preventing intrauterine transmission of syphilis in China in 2011.Methods:This study enrolled all live birth deliveries ( n=455 561) in Nantong from January 2012 to December 2019. The screening, infection rates, anti-syphilis treatment, intrauterine transmission of syphilis, and outcomes of infants with congenital syphilis were retrospectively analyzed using χ 2 test for trend, adjusted χ 2 test, or Fisher's exact test. Results:Except for three women, the remaining 455 558 subjects were all screened for syphilis antibody with a total screening rate of nearly 100%, among which prenatal screening accounted for 96.4% (439 125/455 561) and intrapartum screening for 3.6% (16 433/455 561). In total, 796 (0.17%) women were diagnosed with syphilis during pregnancy, and the prevalence increased from 0.13% (85/64 229) in 2012 to 0.24% (110/45 517) in 2019 (χ 2trend=48.985, P<0.001). The prevalence among women underwent intrapartum screening was significantly higher than those underwent prenatal screening [0.50% (82/16 433) vs 0.16% (714/439 125), χ 2=102.769, P<0.001]. Out of the women with syphilis, 716 (89.9%) received anti-syphilis therapy with 695 cases using penicillin, 16 cases using ceftriaxone and five using erythromycin/azithromycin, while the remaining 80 (10.1%) did not. Intrauterine transmission of syphilis occurred in 14 infants with a transmission rate of 1.8% (14/796). The reported rate of congenital syphilis in all live infants was 0.03‰ (14/460 552). The intrauterine transmission rate in women receiving treatment during pregnancy was significantly lower than that in the untreated women [0.4% (3/716) vs 13.8% (11/80), χ2=66.499, P<0.001]. For the untreated women, the intrauterine transmission rate increased with the rising titers of non-specific syphilis antibody ( χ2trend=5.338, P=0.021). Among infants with congenital syphilis, no obvious adverse outcomes occurred in three infants born to treated mothers, whereas the rates of preterm birth and neonatal death were 7/11 and 2/11 in those born to untreated mothers. Conclusions:Since the implementation of the policy against intrauterine transmission of syphilis, the reported rate of congenital syphilis is 3/100 000 live-birth in Nantong City, reaching the national target of below 15/100 000. Screening and treatment in the first trimester are critical for preventing intrauterine transmission of syphilis. Increased prenatal syphilis screening rate can help further reduction of the intrauterine transmission of syphilis.
